"Everything he does succeeds" Psalm 1.3

The first psalm in the Bible speaks of the danger of being badly advised, listening, and frequenting the wrong people.

"Happy is the man who does not walk according to the advice of the wicked, who does not stop in the way of sinners, and who does not sit on the bench of mockers. Yahweh, who meditates his law day and night, is like a tree planted near a stream, which gives its fruit in its time, and whose foliage does not wither: All that he does Succeeds" (Psalms 1: 1-3).

Examine those who want to advise you before they break into your life.

The verb "succeeds" implies stability, abundance, productivity, vigor, longevity and success. So choose your friends carefully and in prayer, because your loved ones can edify you as you break.

Examine those who want to advise you before they break into your life. Be sure of their integrity, faith, influence, complementarity, shared vision, loyalty, creativity.

If you are looking for these seven qualities in those who advise you, you will most certainly succeed in your mission. And do not forget to ask God his opinion. "When you have to go to the right or to the left, you will hear these words spoken behind you : « "This is the way to go" » (Isaiah 30:21).

Action for Today

Make sure that all your projects are in accord with the will of God. Because otherwise the best advisers in the world will not help you.
